Abstract: An epoxy resin composition for printed wiring boards which comprises an epoxy resin, a phenolic novolak, a curing accelerator, and a silica filler,  characterized in that  the silica filler has a shape having at least two planes and has an average particle diameter of 0,3 to 10 µm and a specific surface area of 8 to 30 m 2 /g. The epoxy resin composition has a higher apparent viscosity than the resins and can hence be inhibited from sagging in a drying oven. This composition reloins the intact property of infiltrating into reinforcements because the viscosity of the resins themselves has not increased today. The composition hence produces the effect of improving the appearance of a prepreg.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de radiochirurgie/radiothérapie optimisé pour répondre aux besoins des neurochirurgiens, notamment pour le traitement de tumeurs dans le cerveau. Ce dispositif combine une bonne pénombre et une bonne précision, une prescription et un fonctionnement simples ainsi qu'une grande fiabilité, et nécessite un support technique minimal. Ce dispositif comprend un support rotatif sur lequel est prévu une monture s'étendant depuis le support vers l'extérieur du plan du cercle, et une source de rayonnement fixée à la monture par un pivot. Le pivot possède un axe qui coupe l'axe de rotation du support, la source de rayonnement étant alignée de manière qu'elle produise un faisceau passant par le point de co-incidence de l'axe de rotation et du pivot. Il sera généralement plus facile de construire cet appareil si le support rotatif est plan, et plus pratique si le support rotatif est en position debout. La rotation du support rotatif est facilitée si cette partie de l'appareil est circulaire. Une orientation particulièrement préférée est celle dans laquelle la source de rayonnement est espacée du support rotatif, afin de lui permettre de pivoter sans salir ce dernier. La monture s'étend donc de préférence transversalement au support. Ainsi, l'axe de pivot est espacée du support rotatif, ce qui permet de produire un espace libre dans lequel la source de rayonnement peut pivoter. Un autre moyen d'exprimer cette préférence est de placer l'axe de pivot hors du plan du support rotatif. Pour simplifier la géométrie du dispositif et l'arithmétique associée, l'axe de pivot est de préférence sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation et la direction du faisceau est perpendiculaire à l'axe de pivot. La source de rayonnement est de préférence un accélérateur linéaire. La sortie de la source de rayonnement est de préférence collimatée de manière qu'elle épouse la forme de la zone à traiter.
